I'm sure that the FBI didn't elaborate on the details but if you got the money, they got the motorcycle, I just don't see any conspiracy here. If you question the transaction go to your bank officer and discuss it with him. This could be a way for terrorist or drug dealers to break the link in funds transfer. I'm going to say that I'd stick with "Bank Wire Transfers" that create a link and offer security. If the guy won't go along with the bank wire transaction just spend $400.00 of that $5000.00 on a 357 magnum and box of cartridges and go ahead on your camping trip. When he accepts standard funds transaction procedures send his money.
